Bollywood
actress
Kangana
Ranaut's
bodyguard
Kumar
Hegde
has
been
arrested
from
his
native
in
Karnataka
by
Mumbai
Police
on
May
29.
He
has
allegedly
been
accused
of
raping
and
cheating
a
beautician
in
Mumbai
with
promises
of
marrying
her.
According
to
a
PTI
report,
Kumar
was
nabbed
by
the
authorities
in
Heggadahalli
village
in
Mandya
district
of
Karnataka.
A
police
official
told
the
agency,
"A
team
under
sub
inspector
Virendra
Bhosle
held
Hegde
a
day
before
he
was
supposed
to
get
married
to
another
girl.
A
30-year-old
woman,
who
works
as
a
beautician,
had
last
week
filed
a
complaint
of
rape
against
him.
The
woman
said
they
knew
each
other
for
eight
years
and
he
had,
in
June
last
year,
proposed
marriage,
which
she
accepted."
However,
their
relationship
went
awry
soon
after
and
she
alleged
that
he
forcibly
exploited
her
sexually.
The
lady,
who
filed
a
report
in
DN
Nagar
Police
Station
in
Andheri,
has
also
alleged
that
Kumar
has
collected
Rs
50,000
from
her
on
April
27
by
claiming
that
his
mother
had
passed
away.
However,
he
went
radio
silent
after
evading
to
his
hometown
and
even
switched
off
his
mobile.
An
official
told
the
agency,
"After
the
woman
found
out
he
was
planning
to
marry
another
girl
in
a
matter
of
days,
she
approached
police
and
Hegde
was
charged
with
rape,
unnatural
sex
and
cheating,
and
arrested."
The
police
had
registered
a
case
against
Hegde
under
sections
376
pertaining
to
rape
and
420
(cheating)
of
the
Indian
Penal
Code.
Based
on
the
complainant's
report,
the
Mumbai
Police
were
scouting
for
Kumar
and
then
took
him
into
custody
on
Saturday
(May
29).
He
was
also
produced
in
the
JMFC
court
at
KR
Pet,
Mandya
before
being
taken
to
Mumbai.
